Wellington International Ukulele Orchestra - Short People

[TheChica131]

This made me laugh so much!!!

And I'm only 4'10" 😄

[lyellbro]

it sounded good but couldnt see the computer screen :(

[gamemak0r]

Hah haa saw these guys playing yesterday in whanganui! there werent this many people tho...

[CDmusic1995]

What say Bret before start to sing?

[chucknorrisfearsno1]

@CDmusic1995 he says "Yea don't clap"

[SplinterCell37]

WOW. Made my day :D

[JMills36]

If I move to Wellington can I join the orchestra??? Pretty pretty please???

[flabrigella]

GUYS it's a joke. chill out. I'm short & i'm not offended. c'mon.

[BowFloyd]

The people that are offended by this song don't understand the point. It's just a parody of prejudice and how ridiculous it is. Randy Newman just had a unique way of saying it.

Bret is badass by the way.

[machinate]

@BowFloyd you also skipped over the obvious fact that Randy Newman is, himself, a tiny little man. He got death threats in spite of this fact that kind of turns the tables, in my opinion.

[STOPtheHORROR]

:l I'm tall but.. this is.. kinda.. offending..

[theloudhalo]

Not a patch on the Ukelele Orchestra of Great Britain! Can't hear the ukeleles.

[redpandarama]

@theloudhalo - I've seen them live and they're amazing musicians. Blame the sound guy.

[theloudhalo]

@redpandarama They may be amazing musicians, but I also have a hatred of this particular song and think it is very cruel. Need I also mention that I am also "short"

Still prefer the ukulele orchestra of GB

[TheMathias95]

@theloudhalo haha ! Maybe you should learn what "parody" means xD that'll help out a lot in real life too xD Or are you short on time ;)

[TheMathias95]

@theloudhalo It depends

[welshmogsy]

@theloudhalo shut it shorty!

[WannaRockChick]

Yet ANOTHER reason to love Bret.

[T4Tyson]

omg IT'S BRET!!!!!

[saxomophonegirl]

Oh my goodness the bass player is wearing a fez

COOLEST BASS PLAYER EVER!

[barrychuckle1411]

Woah, since when was the guy from Flight of the Conchords in WIUO?

[rawiriblundell]

@barrychuckle1411

Since he was one of the founding members? :)

[kennymelodica]

Sensational ! ! !

[TheRealDerfMan]

So, what's the deal.... did Bret just join you guys for this one tune on the show? He wasn't there in "I Love You, Raylene".... would love to see this whole show though, you guys sound great....! =)

[giantpaul]

Very good, but who came first, them or the Ukulele Orchestra of Great Britain. Seem to be a little too similar.

[pacmansays]

I remember listening to this song with my family aged 5. Everyone in my family (myself included) are short and I didn't understand how they could enjoy it.

[Gloggy91]

I love it sooo much :)

[misy49]

two classic covers of this, what a versatile song

[njfidler]

Love it......... Are there any vids up for Africa? Pleeeeeaaaassssseeeeee?

[MrKaukop]

One of the best songs ever!! Love the lamps!

[PascaleBourgeois]

Nice set up! Love the lamps!

[fractuss]

A very misunderstood song.

[ANNABECKDK]

I wish the song was longer

[miramarmike]

The best concert I've been to in 10 years ...

[pliskin914]

[ToyPianista]

The lampshades are fantastic !!

[DBurn101]

Is there a ukulele tab for this?

[UkeeDreamer]
